Recently setup a new TFS2008 installation out in my colocation and had issues with the report and document nodes in my TFS projects not coming alive.  I had put the correct routes into my ISA Server but those other links weren’t working.

I had forgotten to update the wss and report servers names in the registration data on the application tier.

To get the registration data do a:

TFSReg /EXPORT reg.xml APPTIERSERVERNAME

Change the following values to the FQDN of your application tier:

ATMachineName

ReportsService

BaseReportsUrl

WssAdminService

BaseSiteUrl

There are a few settings in the registry also:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0\TeamFoundation\ReportServer\80\Sites

Has BaseReportsService and BaseSiteUrl that also needs to be changed.

Finally clear your cache at (for vista):

c:\users\@username@\appdata\local\microsoft\team foundation\2.0

and delete the cache folder in that location.

Found a great article here somewhat after the fact: http://bloggingabout.net/blogs/mglaser/archive/2007/01/31/hosting-team-foundation-server-on-a-fully-qualified-domain-name-fqdn.aspx
